Abstract

Day after day, SQL Injection (SQLI) attack is consistently proliferating across the globe. According to Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) Top Ten Cheat Sheet-2014, SQLI is at top in the list of online attacks. The cause of spread of SQLI is thought to be Unsecure Software Engineering. The Software Development process itself appears to look at security as an add-on to be checked and deployed towards the end of the software development lifecycle which leads to vulnerabilities in web applications. This paper is an attempt to integrate security in early stages of SDLC i.e. in design phase to mitigate SQLI vulnerability. How SQLI attack happens is illustrated. Threat Modeling is performed to mitigate the SQLI vulnerability.
